Arrival
Ease the pitch and add power earlier on final to arrest the descent rate before reaching the stabilisation gate.
What happened: On the approach, the aircraft's sink rate exceeded the stabilised gate limit, tripping a sink-rate fault at the gate check.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a steady, stabilised descent rate approaching the gate
See Arrival Approach
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate 1,396 fpm, more than the glideslope needed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,660 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,660 m of the 3,369 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 321 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Narita International Airport (RJAA) served as the departure point for the Boeing 777F, which taxiing from the parking area to runway 16R required 8 minutes and covered 3 nm. The aircraft rolled out on runway 16R, utilizing 1,896 m of the available 4,000 m, which represents 47 % of the runway length. Liftoff occurred at 181 kt under local conditions of 26 °C, with a 2 kt wind from 139 °, providing a 2 kt headwind and no crosswind component. The initial climb commenced 1 mile south of the airport, rising from 1,103 ft to 30,992 ft in 20 minutes while covering 149 nm, an ascent of 29,889 ft.
The cruise phase began at latitude 35.255534, longitude 143.155062 and persisted for 85 minutes, during which the aircraft traversed 749 nm. A subsequent climb, starting at latitude 32.736936, longitude 157.832198, increased the altitude from 31,000 ft to 32,447 ft over 2 minutes and 14 nm, an elevation gain of 1,447 ft. Level flight continued from latitude 32.6407241, longitude 158.1236756 for 266 minutes, covering 2,344 nm. Descent operations commenced 14 miles west of PHBK Barking Sands Airport (Kekaha), Hawaii, where the aircraft reduced altitude from 32,997 ft to 1,336 ft in 23 minutes, a descent of 31,661 ft over 122 nm.
Approach to runway 08L at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (PHNL) was executed from the west, maintaining a heading of 90.0 ° at 4 nm and 1,316 ft above ground level. Landing on the 3,741 m runway, the threshold speed was slightly above target at 154 kt, and touchdown occurred 284 m beyond the touchdown zone at 146 kt. The touchdown rate was –267 fpm, with runway alignment described as very good. The total landing distance was 1,958 m, representing 52 % of the runway. After touchdown, taxiing to the parking area required 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The entire flight covered 3,388 nm, lasted 409 minutes, and consumed 60,089 kg of fuel.
The final approach to runway 08L at PHNL Daniel K Inouye International Airport was executed from the west, maintaining a heading of 90.0° at 4 nm and 1,316 ft AGL. The aircraft approached with a threshold height that met the required standard, and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 154 kt, indicating a smooth descent profile. The touchdown occurred 284 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 146 kt that was within acceptable limits and a touchdown rate of –267 fpm, reflecting a controlled and stable landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft’s alignment with the runway centreline was very good, and the touchdown characteristics were consistent with the approach parameters. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating precise handling during the deceleration phase. The total landing distance was 1,958 m, which represents 52 % of the available runway length of 3,741 m, confirming efficient use of the runway while maintaining safety margins.
Overall, the landing performance achieved a score of 94.8 %. The combination of a well‑executed approach, accurate touchdown speed and location, and a clean rollout contributed to this high score, reflecting a proficient and safe landing under the prevailing weather conditions of 30 °C temperature, 11 kt wind from 94°, with a 1 kt crosswind and 11 kt headwind.
